Cursive, Fake Problems get Daytrotter treatment

Daytrotter has quite the treat for their 19th installment of the Daytrotter presents vinyl series, as they’ll be featuring Cursive and Fake Problems on a 12″ record. The 180-gram split release includes sessions from both groups, described as follows:

Led by Tim Kasher, Cursive was one of the forebears of the Omaha/Saddle Creek Records scene and they won us over with the way they were able to put the malaise of the Midwest, or Council Bluffs and Nebraska, into such pretty albeit biting words. Fake Problems is a band that follows the siren calls. These guys – with a lightning-inflected sound of temptation tested and broad-chested rusticity – prevail and look back at their own peril.

They do not list how limited to release will be. Records will ship out in “a few” months. They take pre-orders and then send out the order to the pressing plant.
